PLACE TO BE is a project by IMF (Italian Music Festivals) promoted by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation in the schedule of the Estate all’Italiana Festival, as part of the measures to support Italian cultural and creative companies, and aimed at building a new international narrative of Italy in the post-COVID world.
PLACE TO BE is an exclusive format that blends landscape, creativity, regional highlights, and performing arts: its productions will showcase special and unusual places, hosting some of the best Italian artists of the contemporary and avant-garde music scene. Three extraordinary territories have been chosen to provide a geographical overview of our country, giving the opportunity to the artistic directors of the festival network to enhance their value thanks to an original musical curatorship, in a shared project under the supervision of Raffaele Costantino.
Streaming in September will be performances by Nu Guinea, immersed in the vineyards of Monferrato, by Clap! Clap! and Kety Fusco in the medieval village of Civita di Bagnoregio and by Calibro 35 at the archaeological site of Egnazia, in the district of Fasano (BR).
The events will be live-streamed on the DICE TV platform and promoted worldwide by the Network of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation. Subsequently, the videos will be available on-demand on www.italianmusicfestivals.com.
